I'm toying with the idea of going for the cam only record (10.99 now right?). What kinda cam would I need for super high RPM action? I'm thinking something like a 232/232 114ls. Any other ideas? Narrow power band is OK.

01-Z should have that record beat tonight, G5X-2 is an awsome cam.

Well...I'm trying anyway. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

LG will sell you the cam,they don't have to install it.

Speed Inc. installed mine.

Who set that record for the fastest cam only car. What was the race weight on it <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

You plan on running an aftermarket piston, or are you going to keep this strictly a bolt-on type application?

If I were you I'd run an aftermarket piston, something pretty high compression, and a shorter rod (not MUCH shorter, just a few thousandths of an inch). Then I'd make sure the heads would be able to flow what the cam needed, and then run a Comp-R lifter and rev it to 7500/7600.

Don't go the solid roller route unless you know what you're doing. You can slow your car down substantially.

Oh and by the way.... just for conversation.

7200rpm is NOT "super high" rpm.

I'd love to get the CR up but I think that's "cheating". I don't think any cam in an LS1 with stock heads is going to make power to 7600, not even a solid roller, but 7200 seems possible. Down the road I might add ported 5.3 heads with light weight LS6 valves.

IMO it has to have a stock bottom end with maybe ARP rod bolts, Hoffpauir has a bone stock bottom end I think.

If you are going with a G5X2, just get a comp XE-R 232/240 on a 114 with like 2-4 degrees of advance. The G5X2 has like 7 or more degrees of advance ground in per LGs specs.

Extend your powerband by increasing duration, not by widening LSA. I think for a record on stock headed car, the LSA will be narrow.

BIIIIIG dood!

I want a high RPM narrow power band. Say 6200-7200rpm. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I guess that was literal, as I seem to have left the "i" out of acquainted! Duh!

Narrow LSA would surely help. Try a G5-X2 related duration cam on xe-r lobes with a 108-110lsa.

gwj .....

Well, thankyou so much. Yes, back in the good ol' US of A.

I retire from US fed civil service in 7 more months. Thinking about moving to Pattaya Beach, Thailand.
